Back to the end of the Ming Dynasty when the emperor

Chapter 891 I have to praise her (one more)
Because the nightlife was too rich last night, after jade liquid fine wine, delicacies from mountains and seas, He Xuanjiao, Ma Jinhua, and Huimei accompanied the three beautiful concubines, and Xiao Liu also joined in. They first competed with swords, then played chess, and finally practiced calligraphy for a while. After tossing and tossing until the second watch, Zhu Yousong went to bed to rest with his arms around Jiaomei, moved around on the bed for a while, and then fell into a deep sleep.

Therefore, Zhu Yousong slept very soundly last night, and no one dared to disturb him until the sun was high, until he woke up naturally, yawned a long time, and brushed Ma Jinhua's waterfall-like long hair beside his pillow .

"Your Majesty, you are awake." The long eyelashes flickered, and the grape-like eyes flashed with a sleepy aura.

Zhu Yousong smiled apologetically, "My dear concubine, did I wake you up?"

"That's not true. In fact, the concubine has woken up a long time ago, but she dare not disturb His Majesty's dream."

"So cute." Zhu Yousong held the beauty in his arms...

After Ma Jinhua took care of dressing and washing, the couple began to have breakfast.

After breakfast, Li Quan came in to report on the battle situation last night.

Only then did Zhu Yousong realize that he had slept too deeply at night.It turned out that after the third watch, it was so lively. Two groups of Qing troops broke through the siege, and the sound of cannons and shouts of killing was earth-shattering, but this movement did not wake them up. Bringing myself into the paradise on earth once, the wonderful feeling is fascinating, and I will never tire of it.

Zhu Yousong glanced at Ma Jinhua thinking this way, and he had a clear understanding. Ma Jinhua was also thinking about this at this time. Awake.Seeing His Majesty's eyes, Ma Jinhua smiled charmingly, lowered her head slightly, her cheeks flushed.

"The Qing army broke through the siege and split into two groups. I didn't even know about it. I slept so well last night!"

Li Quan heard that the fight was so fierce last night. The 10,000+ army of the Qing army broke through in two ways. The fierce battle started just after the third watch and ended when it was close to the fifth watch. Far away, with his miraculous skills, he is even more vigilant than ordinary people. The loud shouts and gunfire did not wake up His Majesty, is it true?
Li Quan made an arc in his heart, but he didn't dare to say, "Your Majesty is busy working day and night, maybe you are too tired. Last night, at the third watch, the Qing army almost came out with all their cannons, food, grass and other supplies. It seemed that they were going to abandon the city and flee, and break through the siege from the west gate and the north gate respectively. The two generals Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong commanded the troops and blocked them. The fierce fighting lasted nearly five o'clock before the two Qing troops were forced to retreat into the city. .Because His Majesty ordered that our army was mainly trapped, so last night, we did not attack the city again."

Zhu Yousong nodded: "Does the Qing army have generals who stand out from the encirclement? How many casualties did our army have, and how many Qing troops were annihilated?"

"Return to Your Majesty. The Qing army never went out with a single soldier. According to preliminary estimates, the number of casualties of our army outside the north gate and west gate is about 2000. Just looking at the corpses outside the city, the casualties of the Qing army will not be less than 3." Ten thousand. The specific casualties, the two generals Hongji and Xianzhong will have a note soon."

Only paying a small price of 2000 casualties, more than 3 Qing troops were wiped out. Not a single soldier succeeded in breaking through. Zhu Yousong was very satisfied with this big victory.

Zhu Yousong couldn't help blurting out: "The soldiers put so much effort into their lives, it seems that the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang's silver contribution is indispensable. I have to commend her, and serve her with pen and ink."

Li Quan and his wife almost burst out laughing, His Majesty is acting good at taking advantage of it, the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang must be pissed to death.

Xiao Liu agreed, and quickly polished the ink, and the eunuch An Lin quickly laid out the rice paper.

Zhu Yousong held the pen in his hand, thought for a while, and then the pen went ahead, and soon a letter was written, using the imperial seal.An Lin dried the letter, and Xiao Liu sealed the envelope.

Zhu Yousong gave the letter to Zhang Huan, a young archer, and ordered him to shoot the arrow into the city at night.

"No." Zhang Huan agreed, took the letter, and turned around when he was about to leave, "Your Majesty, the Qing army can no longer hold on. When will they attack the city?"

"Xiaoqing's family is right. The money has been given to us. I am afraid that we will run out of ammunition and food in a short time. However, if I want to attack the city on a large scale, I will not wait until now. I will wait for his reinforcements. It's been more than a month, and I haven't seen any sign of their reinforcements yet, so I've been waiting impatiently, so I might as well find a way to urge them."

Zhang Huan didn't dare to be happy when he heard it. Why is His Majesty always thinking so strangely?When the enemy is trapped, they are all afraid of the enemy's reinforcements coming. Is there anyone who hopes that the enemy's reinforcements will come early?
"Your Majesty, you want to wipe out all the Tartars, but how can you urge them? Could it be that Your Majesty will send someone to help them ask for reinforcements?" Xiao Liu said half-truthfully, shaking her head and flashing her big clever eyes. .

Zhu Yousong also laughed, "Eunuch An, you faxed the will, and then you can release one or two of those who break into the camp and let them go to ask for help, and don't let the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang be too desperate. "

"Your maidservant takes the order." An Lin agreed, and delivered the order.

In the early morning, outside the south and west gates of Shengjing, there were dead bodies everywhere, fragments of broken flags, broken knives and broken blades everywhere. Blood flowed like a river, staining the land and the water of the moat red.

A Ming army began to sweep the battlefield, take care of the spoils, and bury the corpses.

The Qing army on the top of the city could only watch, the suspension bridge hung high, and the four gates were closed tightly. They worked hard and made preparations to prevent the Ming army from attacking the city.

The Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang failed to break through the siege yesterday, and the 10,000+ armies of the two armies did not rush out. After half a night of tossing, they were driven back to the city by the Ming army.

The Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang was really desperate. She didn't close her eyes all night last night. She first drove out of the city and then came back after a circle. She was physically and mentally exhausted and couldn't sleep until dawn.

Someone came to report that in the battle last night, more than 36000 people were killed or injured by the two groups of troops who walked through the north gate and the south gate. Now there are only 7 soldiers left in the city who can fight, and the army rations in the city can support it at most 20 days.

The casualties were so heavy, so much silver, gold, silver and jewels were all wasted, and it was useless at all. After 20 days at most, they would be chaotic and die without a fight.

"Why?... Is the sky going to kill us?" The Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang really couldn't take it anymore, she beat her chest with her feet.

All civil and military officials knelt on the ground outside, all silent, not daring to say a word.

The woman was really anxious and roared: "Where are the warriors of the Qing Dynasty? Where are the brave Aixinjueluo people?...Feng Quan, Ganglin, Wu Keshan, listen, who can break into the camp and move troops? The Ai family will reward him with a jade belt and brocade robe first, and when the soldiers come to rescue the soldiers, the Ai family will definitely make him king and marquis!"

"The slave obeys the order, and the slave leads the order."
